My eyes are still bigger than my stomach
Often I feel that I can ear more than I actually can. I dont overeat but usually wind up putting some food back , even though i think its a small amount. I do love the way my Sleeve is in control because that was the main reason for me getting the surgery. I really do respect what it does for me but I just have to get used to the fact that I can only eat a quarter of the food I used to eat, maybe less.
. I hope my ticker is displayed, I cant seem to get it to come up right!
Take this opportunity to focus on learning to make the proper food choices for long term maintenance and getting a grip on any issues you may have that lead you to misuse food.

start measuring how much you put on your plate/bowl... I measure everything... im 6 weeks post-op and i can eat 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup every 3 hours depending on what it is... Now, If I'm drinking just broth, i can tolerate 1 cup. If im having thicker soup or chilli, i can eat 1/4-1/2 cup. It's good to know how much your sleeve can handle.
